Tia McGraff
"DIVERSITY"
A/C-Americana

To achieve her goal of diversity, McGraff devoted a lot of time to carefully selecting the songs that made the cut and the musicians who recorded them. To ensure a unique quality to every track, McGraff picked musicians from Los Angeles to Toronto, and when it came time to mix, she brought in past studio mates from Nashville, Seattle, and “yes, even Port Dover, Ontario,” laughs McGraff. So what can one expect from Diversity? “I have reached deep inside my soul on this album and stepped out of my comfort zone, so to speak. The lyrics speak of my political point of view, hurt and disappointment, healing, intimacy, and ... not really giving a damn what anyone thinks of me. I've found my voice and am free to be me,” says McGraff.

Emily White
"THE RESOLUTION EP"
Folk/Rock

Emily White’s voice, which has been described as “positively exhilarating” (Indie-Music.com) and “preternaturally haunting” (Connect Savannah), is at its best to date on her new album The Resolution EP, ranging from subtle and soft on tracks like “Robot Hearts” to bursting with heart and energy on the track “Toe That Line.” The artwork to the record is as organic as the artist and music itself. The track lists and credits are rubber stamped onto the 100% recycled cardboard sleeves whose covers are letter-press printed with soy inks. Oh, and each one of the first 300 copies is hand-colored. The Resolution EP and Emily White are independent music/DIY culture at its best.
